hmm.. today going to talk about something serious. Does hardwork really pays off in the things you do? And is teachers to be blame for your results. Notice that the topics today are mostly related to the recent release of common test 2 result from SRJC.

I have friends that study so hard. They can study almost anywhere and anytime. They spend recess time( or break time ) and lunch to complete tutorials way ahead of the lecturers. They work so hard and yet they never receive the results they truly hoped for. "You reap what you sow" is this really the case then?? I told friends that sometime hardwork alone cannot bring you far. True but sad, one require certain 'talent' in the area, and in this case studies. My definition of talent here simply means foundations. Just like English, one cannot turn into someone that writes and speaks English fluently overnight. No matter how hard you work in that one night.. nothing much will change.

Though one may not have that foundations, one should continue to work hard. Because by the time its A levels, your foundation will be built and your scores will be better. It may not show much now, but if one perserveres, you will get the results you desire.

So how about blaming the teachers for not doing well in exams? I have a friend who said that better teachers produce better students( in term of grades ). I agreed to that partially. No matter how you argues, one cannot say that teachers will not affect the grade we are receiving. Teachers are the ones who impart vital knowledge to us. And the method of imparting those knowledge will ultimately affect our understanding towards it.

However how can one push all the blame to the teachers?( i think many will agree with me on this). There is still parts that requires us to work hard together with the teachers to get good grades.

The situation I'm in now is that i am upset over the fact that i never score good grades for my results. Dont get me wrong, I am not going to complain why I didnt get good grades. It is just that whenever I do not receive a good grade, i will feel as if i have disappointed the teachers and friends around me. I believe there are teachers out there who feel that they cannot teach well and thus produces students with poor grades. I feel terrible if i contributed to this factor of making others sad. Thats why i always try to do better, not for myself but for the rest, for the teachers.

When it comes to this, i am not sure what i can say to myself. Of course the teacher must be a kind one for me to feel so sad in making he/she feel bad.

with this i end off with saying never give up.. trust me and continue to work hard. You will surely sees the light at the end of the tunnel soon!!
